About the ACCUPLACER ESL

If your native language is not English and you are seeking an associate degree or
career certificate, you will be required to take the ACCUPLACER ESL.

The LOEP is designed to assess your English skills if you have learned English as
an additional language to your native language.

Tests are administered on a walk-in basis at Valencia's Assessment Centers.
